Home-schooled Students

Under the student eligibility provisions of section 484(d)(3) of the Higher Education Act, a student who does not have a High School diploma or GED is eligible to receive Title IV, HEA program assistance if the student "completes a secondary school education in a home school setting that is treated as a home school or private school under State law."  Section 484 (d)(3) imposes no age limitation on the eligibility of home-schooled students.  An "underage" home-schooled student is considered to be "beyond the age of compulsory school attendance in the State in which the institution is located," if that State does not consider the student truant once he or she has completed a home-school program; or would not require the student to attend school or continue to be home-schooled.
